Steve Meyers shares his journey searching for a place to call home - eventually finding it within the mountains, the joys of fly fishing and bright streams running through the San Juans Mountains.
Steve writes with extraordinary warmth and depth about a way of life that has become increasingly rare and a region that has managed to maintain its startling beauty and idiosyncrasies. Centered on the San Juan Mountains of southwest Colorado, a range of jagged peaks inhabited by the sometimes equally jagged people of small mountain towns, Steve writes movingly about a father who vanished and about personal loss and about triumph.
While Steve's stories showcase wild trout and the colorful people of a relatively remote region in which the act of fly fishing seems as natural as eating and sleeping, this book is very much a story of human values, courage and hard-won joy.
